+=== New features ===
+==== Multiple table search path ====

+The environment variable LOUIS_TABLEPATH can now contain a list of paths(separated by commas) where liblouis should look for tables. This allowsthe user to keep local tables.

+==== New --quiet option for lou_checktable ====

+lou_checktable writes to stderr even in the case of success. This can nowbe suppressed with the new option --quiet.

+==== New functions to make libraries relocatable ====

+Two new functions, to set the search path for tables and files. They makethe library relocatable. See the in the documentation for lou_setDataPathand lou_getDataPath.

+  * Support for Catalan
+  * Support for Dutch Braille (for Belgium and the Netherlands)
+  * Support for Flemish Braille Math Code (a.k.a. Woluwe code)
+
+=== Improved the documentation ===
+The deprecated opcodes have been moved to a separate section
+
+=== Bug fixes ===
+  * Fixed a long standing bug with an infinite loop in the table compiler

+==== Python bindings ====

+ * Allow the user to configure the maximum output length by specifying anumber by which the input length is multiplied using the outlenMultipliermodule variable. The default will handle the case where every inputcharacter is undefined in the translation table. Previously, this washard-coded to 2, which was insufficient in some cases.

+   * Add compbrlLeftCursor mode constant.

+Added a patch provided by Volker Bijewitz to implement compbrlLeftCursor.
+
+=== Bug fixes ===
+==== output cursorPos ====

+Fix the output cursorPos when the compbrlAtCursor mode is enabled and thecharacters around the cursor translate to multiple braille cells, such asin the Chinese braille tables.

+==== outpos when doing back translation ====

+Include a patch by Timothy Lee to fix outpos when doing back translation(issue 11)

+==== inputPos/outputPos for undefined characters ====

+Fix the input/output position arrays for characters in the input which areundefined in the translation table.

+==== table fixes ====
+   * Fixed a bug with back translation of '{{{*n}}}'. (issue 13)
+   * Fixes to the en-us-g2.ctb table
+==== Python bindings ====

+ * Remove unnecessary imports, allowing the bindings to run in Python2.7. (issue 12)+ * {{{lou_translate*}}} writes output information in typeform, soallocate enough bytes for it. Fixes possible buffer overruns and resultantcrashes.

+==== Miscellaneous ====

+ * Fixes to the man page generation to fix issues that were reported bythe Debian packaging builder

+   * Do not invoke help2man when cross-compiling
